๐ Description
The Picasso Longfin Clownfish is a stunning designer variant of Amphiprion percula, celebrated for its abstract white markings and flowing fins. Each fish showcases a unique pattern โ often with swooping, irregular white bands across a vibrant orange body, bordered in black. The longfin trait adds dramatic flair, with extended, rounded fins that trail gracefully as the fish swims.
No two Picassos are alike, making each specimen a living piece of reef art. The longfin enhancement preserves natural swimming ability while adding visual elegance, making this fish a standout in nano reefs or centerpiece displays.
